When I took the Rainmaker Challenge I was intrigued to learn more about the potential of passive income and knew nothing about selling physical products on Amazon. Six months later I launched my first product and 15 months after that I reached the incredible milestone of achieving 6-figures in my Amazon biz.
The journey didn’t end there!!! I have continued to expand my families passive income streams based on strategies I learned through Rainmakers. We are positioning to replace my husband’s income at retirement in a few short years and the joy that brings our entire family is priceless!!!
As I’ve built wealth and created a family legacy I’m incredibly proud of, there have also been powerful mindset shifts in my relationship with money, my beliefs about opportunity, and what is possible for my family. The accelerated personal growth I have experienced is by and far the most treasured part of my Rainmaker Journey. Having the opportunity to experience that inner upgrade alongside other growth-minded female entrepreneurs is a rare and beautiful bond.
Stephen and Chelsey have created a movement for positive change in the lives of families across the globe and empowered thousands of mamas with an abundance mindset and actionable strategies to create wealth. Forever grateful to call myself a Rainmaker and multiply the generosity and breakthrough I’ve experienced along the way!

Blown away by your transformational experiences! From intrigued beginner to a passive income powerhouse that extends beyond the wealth, but also encompasses the abundant mindset and personal growth - that is remarkable!
Sharing your journey warms our hearts, Nicole! Thank you! :)

I made over $100,000 in PROFITS
I made over $100,000 in PROFITS, not revenue, but profits this last year from what I have learned in RM. It might look different than what you would think, but it all started here and I am forever grateful to Stephen and Chelsey!

The Rainmaker Challenge and The…
The Rainmaker Challenge and The Rainmaker Family is the best investment I have made in myself and my family. I joined the Mastermind with Stephen and Chelsey in 2022 and have never regretted it. The coaches are amazing and always there to answer any questions you may have. I still have a very close relationship with my coach. Stephen and Chelsey are always giving and sharing all their knowledge with us. There is constant communication and the love and support of the community is unlike any community I have seen. Love this Community, Stephen and Chelsey and all the coaches. Rainmaker Forever!

A Transformative Journey to Entrepreneurship
Rainmakers is a community that will not only equip you with entrepreneurial skills, but with mindset shifts that will help you THINK like an entrepreneur. This is not a “get rich quick” model, but a model that works with devoted time (even if it’s just during naptime!), commitment, creativity, and lots of courage to keep going even when faced with set backs and challenges.
The founders, Stephen and Chelsea are not only brilliant leaders, they are compassionate and devoted to cheering you on through the process with tons of training, accessible coaches, and an amazing Facebook group full of mastermind members willing to help, answer questions, celebrate your wins, and encourage you as you overcome obstacles.
Amazon truly is a jungle, as I’m learning more and more with my product launch, but I cannot imagine trekking through it without the company of other Rainmakers. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who considers themselves to be motivated, self-starting, relatively detail-oriented, and patient. This is a PROCESS. And one where I have learned so much, grown so much, and been transformed as a person and business owner. Thank you Rainmakers!
Response from Rainmaker FamilyFeb 13, 2024
Awesome, Hannah! We're so proud of your entrepreneurial trek and can't wait to see what incredible wins you achieve next! Keep rocking it on your Amazon adventure – you're an inspiration to us all! ✨

Unleashing Entrepreneurial Dreams: A Transformative Journey with the Rainmaker Mastermind Amazon FBA Program
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Rainmaker Mastermind Amazon FBA program has been an absolute game-changer for me. As a nurse, entrepreneurship wasn’t on my radar, but now, thanks to this program, I’ve discovered the potential to serve moms, enhance family time, and maintain my work in the NICU on my terms.
Remarkably, within less than three months since our initial launch, we hit a significant milestone, reaching 15k in revenue. The program’s impact goes beyond the numbers – it has empowered us to start a brand to bring about positive change. Through this journey, I’ve gained a profound awareness of and overcome mental barriers I didn’t know were hindering my progress.
My husband and I signed up without prior knowledge of the 7-day challenge, and it truly was the start of so many more opportunities and growth for us. We have since learned that the 7-day challenge provides so much value, and is really just a small glimpse of all that Stephen and Chelsey offer in their mastermind. This program is a transformative force, seamlessly aligning with personal and professional aspirations. It’s been a journey of discovery, breaking barriers, and achieving tangible success. If you’re seeking a program that delivers on its promises and reshapes your approach to entrepreneurship, the Rainmaker Mastermind Amazon FBA program is undoubtedly the way to go.
Response from Rainmaker FamilyFeb 13, 2024
Wow! From NICU nurse to 15k in revenue just within less than three months of your launch? Your story is amazing! We are incredibly proud to read about the transformational impact on your life, which aligns perfectly with the vision we had when creating Rainmaker from the ground up.
Thanks for sharing your incredible journey, Summer! :)

Please do not fall for this company
Please do not fall for this company! They seem so genuine and caring but it is the opposite. They put profits before people constantly.
I like others fell for the scam that anyone can hop into amazon and make their dreams come true. Not only is that not true AT ALL but the Rainmaker Program is full of plot holes, or just flat out WRONG information. To be honest I bet NO ONE at the company has had a successful product on amazon since 2019, including the owners.
They are killing it on the social media and partnership game, which is how they are scamming so many people. I would be way happier if they pivoted and sold people on marketing because that IS ACTUALLY something they know about. At least then they could be in integrity with their business. But Amazon is not their strong suit. All the times they brag that they can travel the world is NOT on amazon money. It is from scamming honest people out of their money.
After investing over 15,000 dollars I have moved on to finding a company that could help me salvage my investment. I have interviewed several and here is what they have ALL told me. Amazon is a gamble. It is not for the faint of heart. You need over $50,000 to spend, that you may or may not lose in order to get started. You need to want to be in this for the long haul, to build a brand. You should be willing to pay over $1500 a month for PPC. Not just anyone can hop into the Amazon game, it it not the windfall people are hoping for. Out of every 5 products you try you may get 1 to take off and make it worth it. ALL THINGS the Rainmaker family say the opposite for.
I have talked to a lot of other clients, and past employees. The success rate of the mastermind is incredibly low. The company is ACTIVELY manipulating sales knowing full well they CAN NOT fulfill. In the mastermind they promise to help you for a year, but if you comment on the fb page that you need help or things aren't adding up they delete your comment, or remove you from the group entirely.
RUN AWAY! As fast as you can.
Response from Rainmaker FamilyJan 24, 2024
Ouch! This one hurt our hearts Michelle.
I wish you could see behind the scenes of the many countless times we've risked it all, to put our people before the profits (we actually run on very slim profits to this day because this is very much a movement that we believe in reinvesting into).
To address your concerns, our expert Amazon coaching team is vetted for their expertise on Amazon, which includes being an active seller and hitting certain milestones. We regularly check up on these things and offboard coaches who are not meeting those requirements.
The fact is, all business endeavors are a gamble. Amazon is not unique in that. Every entrepreneurial venture is a risk. But that's why we do it. We risk like no one else so we can have freedom like no one else. That's why our course and training is about reducing risk in every phase. Doing things like product inspections, market research polls, etc help you ensure you're going to reduce the risk as much as possible.
We have many Rainmakers crushing it completely without PPC, however Amazon is increasing how many PPC (advertising) placements there are, so PPC is a good thing to learn or outsource. It will only amplify what is already happening on your product however, so if your photos, price or product innovation are off, it's only going to amplify negative results for your product. This is why we encourage all our our students now to run a market research poll BEFORE placing their bulk order. If you don't win this poll, you wont win with PPC. The lesson is called 𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐎𝐕𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍] Market Research Part 2: Intellivy Testing the Market | DO NOT SKIP - if you want to check it out. It has a big red flag next to it in the course so you can't miss it.
As far as success rate, we've spent the last entire year building dashboards and meticulous tracking systems for all our students. In the past we've only tracked higher milestones (that's where we get the data like how a new family is crossing the 6 figure mark every 14.2 days on average).
Now we're tracking everything down to the daily progress of our students, course completion percentage, coaching call attendance.
We have every milestone throughout the Rainmaker journey mapped out with projected timelines that we consider green (good), yellow (needs help) and red (911, slipping behind!).
Currently at the time of writing this, 87% of our students in the green, 5% yellow, meaning their slipping behind and our team of client success managers are now assisting to 1-on-1 to get them back to green, and 8% are in the red, meaning they have fallen way behind or we're not able to reach them after multiple reach outs.
We are proud of the success rates in Rainmakers and track these metrics daily and our team puts all their effort into increasing GREENS across the board.
I hope this helps you get a better look into the behind the scenes of how much we truly do care about you winning. I know you said you found another program, so please be sure to tap their resources as much as you can. If you're still a member of our Mastermind, you're always welcome to hop on our daily coaching calls or reach out to our support if there's anything else we can do to help you get results.

Do not fall for the deception and lies
This 'program' is such a scam. I feel so horrible for not only myself, but for the people that fell for this sales pitch. It's incredibly expensive, they offer an add-on of a Done For You product, that in my experience, my own Coach didn't agree with the initial submissions. There was no communication for months after purchasing the add-on, the coaching ended prior to that, massive confusion about what the coaching actually entails, and from the moment you click to purchase you are being set up for failure. People then realized what a scam the DFY product is and tried selling what they purchased to try and recoup some of their money, and they were shut right down. I can see a class action suit in the future due to the deception of the process. When admitted into the FB group, you will see hundreds of posts disappear when people complain about how they are failing, losing money, getting scammed, or having issues with the DFY product. It makes me so sad to see how people have been taken advantage of. There will be posts like "you just need to have a persistent and winning attitude" - which is silly. I didn't end up creating a product even though I had what I feel are valid ideas because the amount of people failing is SIGNIFICANT. You will see people who launched a product and only break even. They try to say that you have enough time to get a refund if you follow the launch and the truth of the matter is very few people can launch in time due to a large variety of factors outside of their control. The fact that they push people to get credit cards and put things on credit - yikes - they are really doing a disservice.
Response from Rainmaker FamilyJan 18, 2024
Hi Kara, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I know DFY Teams that in their hearts are to see you succeed, and it is possible for the data to shift over time. For this instance, If you ever require a re-evaluation, our research team is always here to lend a hand so they can double-check everything, ensuring that you can move forward with confidence. Currently we're on a 14 day delivery time for those ideas, and we're switching to a new system too to have even faster delivery of those product after purchase.
Now, we understand that many Facebook groups can be discouraging, however we do our best to keep the Rainmaker group one filled with hope. Deleting hundreds of posts is quite the exaggeration as our group doesn't even have that many posts a day.
We always encourage students to lean on our experts and dedicated support channel to address any pain points you may have. The facebook group is a support group, which means, it's there for support. People don't ask for support when they are winning. We track the results of our students meticulously and currently at the time of writing this we have 87% of our students in the green, meaning their hitting their milestones in the projected timeframes we encourage, 5% yellow, meaning their slipping behind and our team of client success managers are assisting to get them back to green, and 8% red, meaning they have fallen way behind or we're not able to reach them.
When posts are deleted, it's often due to misinformation that may throw off new Rainmakers, or due to the post not being productive or helpful for the community. If it's just a "rant" that's not going to solve any issues, but rather create a sense of fear or panic that which happened in your case, someone projected their own entrepreneurial obstacles that lead you to a sense of discouragement and ultimately giving up. To me, that's sad and why we protect the integrity of the group by removing some of those posts (always giving the author feedback of how to repost to actually get the help they need).
Entrepreneurship is a journey, it's easy to feel overwhelmed thinking you may fail, and we'd love to help you provide solutions and avoid getting stuck. If you need to hop on a call and talk it through, happy to do so.

Rainmaker Reality Check: A Cautionary Tale of Hidden Costs and Censored Truths in Launching an Amazon Business
The program might as well be called 'Rainbow Makers' for its tendency to gloss over and censor the real challenges of launching an Amazon business.
What they don't tell you is the plethora of additional costs beyond the basics of manufacturing, shipping and launch giveaways. Expect to grapple with expenses in legal, business, finance, storage, creative services, and, notably, advertising – a relentless expense that, in my experience, devoured all profits from my three product launches since July.
Despite the program's quality content and coaches, it fails to cover crucial concepts, leaving participants unprepared. My journey was marked by tough, costly lessons due to these omissions.
Efforts to share my real-world experiences with fellow participants were met with swift censorship, as my posts were deleted within hours. This pattern of overzealous moderation, which I've learned is not uncommon, adds to the frustration. Some invested moms were even removed for merely speaking the truth.
For those seeking a passive income avenue to support their families, I advise caution and suggest looking for more transparent and realistic programs. If you still choose Rainmaker, be acutely aware of the potential storms ahead, despite the promise of rainbows.
EDIT: In response to the Rainmaker reply, they are flat-out lying as a way to redirect blame – a tactic they use freely on anyone who challenges them. For the record, I watched about 90% of the courses, some multiple times. Some were bonus courses or unrelated to my business and weren't relevant to me. I also watched nearly all of the recorded weekly phone calls for Phase 3. As for their so-called advertising courses, I found their content unhelpful. Instead, I watched and listened to Helium 10 content and hours of YouTube videos. Clearly, RM is afraid of a little honesty and transparency.
Response from Rainmaker FamilyJan 9, 2024
Greetings BreAnda! I took a look at your progress (32% of the course) and it looks like you hadn't completed the lessons with the info you claim that we're missing.
As far concerning on fees, we believe we dedicated a specific section on our course to address upfront each one you need to know. That's the lesson entitled "Everything You Need To Know About Amazon FBA Fees and Storage Fees" - I see this lesson uncompleted on your end.
We also have a lesson on budgeting called "How to Budget & Ensure Your Product is Profitable" so be sure to watch that one as well. This lesson was also not watched by you.
On the advertising, there's over 27 lessons on this topic, of which you have completed 3.
We acknowledge the importance of transparency in costs, and do our best to encourage our students to watch the training or hop on the daily coaching calls and ask questions, but often times when digging into the tracking we have behind the scenes, we can see that you're not plugging into these resources.
Our program is designed to provide you with the support you need to break through these walls and shift the situation in your favor. We believe in challenging you to push through and overcome obstacles, and often showing tough love
As for your post that was deleted, we really appreciate the insights shared in your post, and it was not our intention to censor you from sharing your journey with others.
However, with a community of this size, we have to ensure that other members are not thrown off by language that is pointing fingers at the program, attempting to enroll other students into the same negative thinking, when we have provided ample resources that you have not watched or shown up for.
